As people have noted, conditions are exactly right for finding all sorts of fungi in the woods where you are.
I went out with a K1 and the SMC Pentax-A 100mm dental macro and a 50mm Macro Takumar to find some
of the more unusual specimens.

1 These tiny things were all over the place and the odd few were caught in bright sunlight.



2 While some were downright suggestive !



3 Where there were dead twigs, little colonies of Conch fungus had sprouted along their length. These
are about 1cm across with a bright white upper side and complex gills beneath. They are stemless and grow
in a manner similar to opening a circular, pleated, paper fan.



4 Many of what will be found are unidentifiable to non fungus bods like me but they can be pretty nevertheless



5 Another tiny one that finishes off the last remaining goodness in near buried tree stumps is the
candle-snuff fungus. These are about 2cm tall.



All of these were taken with natural light only. Most of have been edited for a mobile telephone screen
since it is a very convenient way to carry your pictures around with you. Comments very welcome.

Yes, it's tempting but I pinch myself and tell myself that I already have the SMC f2.8, A series version.

I have been using Faststone Image Viewer (it's actually an editor) for many years. It's not all singing all dancing incomprehensibility like PS or LR but it's free and does a very competent job. Even now, I still learn something new with it due to its sheer versatility.

It is commonly used with the 35-80mm to bring its macro capability up to 1:1. I've just had a rummage but I can't find any examples. Memory tells me they were OK.

I've recently had that monster update but K5, K3ii and K1 upload via cable as they always have done with drives showing as G and H.

I can certainly see why it took top marks. Thank you for sharing it. I enjoyed looking at it.

The first one is a cracker. I have to ask however, why use a flash? These subjects are going nowhere soon so a tripod and remote release with however many seconds exposure will produce equally nice results. The last image is a lovely example of something being in front of one's eyes but quite invisible until processing time.

Lovely collection - especially the little fluffy brown one (which I have found very hard to get right). It's a great result.

Super set. The low angle and reflections on the steps are really nice.

As I scrolled down, and you put the ND filter on, my mental comment was, "good heavens, it's all died!." I know that's what's supposed to happen but the contrast was dramatic.
